Youth organisation hits out at ‘happy hour’ breaches
Quoting a recent report by the drinks industry-funded MEAS organisation – which promotes sensible drinking – Youth Work Ireland (YWI) spokesman Michael McLoughlin said: “Night clubs and alcohol venues appear to have little regard for the law.”
According to YWI, the fourth report under the MEAS code of practice shows that numerous pubs, clubs and nightclubs have had complaints upheld against them for ignoring laws that prohibit the cut- price marketing of alcohol for a limited period of time.
